Working at Diamond Foundry
Our mission is to accelerate today's most exciting mega tech industries by innovating at the very foundation of technology. Want to help us change the world?
Core Values
We embrace change
We think outside the box, ask why, and push boundaries. We embrace change with the courage to tackle challenging problems and drive ourselves hard to achieve our goals. If it were easy, someone else would be already doing it.
We build for eternity
We develop products that have the quality of eternal at every level: they fill real needs and provide lasting value. Our products and solutions are sustainable by nature because they hold up the test of time.
We make things happen
We have an ownership mindset and take responsibility for our tasks, big or small. We acknowledge that things might not always go our way: unforeseen or uncontrollable events may foil the best plans. With dedication, we pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and persevere over whatever the world throws at us.
We win as a team
Teamwork and an ego-less approach are essential to our success. It takes a balance and combination of different skill sets to win, so we embrace people’s diverse experiences and backgrounds. Our extended team includes our suppliers, customers, and stakeholders at large.

How we build culture
We do not seek to preserve our culture—we seek to improve it. Every new employee helps to shape and evolve the culture so we find new ways to accomplish more together. We are learning faster than ever, because we have more dedicated people with more diverse perspectives working to excel as the dream team.
That cultural excellence propels our business excellence, which increases member satisfaction and in turn propels our long term growth and stock price. It’s how we build an extraordinarily successful company entertaining the world.
Our work / life philosophy
Benefits at Diamond Foundry exist to support the needs of our employees during moments that matter by offering benefits that enhance productivity through the lens of inclusion, so our employees can focus on entertaining the world.
1. Parental Leave: We recognize that one of the most special events in an individual's life is the birth or adoption of a child. Our parental leave policy is: "take care of your baby and yourself." New parents generally take 3 - 6 months.
2. Time Away: Our PTO policy is unlimited and we actually follow though. Frankly, we intermix work and personal time quite a bit. Time away works differently at Diamond Foundry. We don’t set a vacation schedule and have some holidays, but we want you to observe what’s important to you—including when your mind and body need a break. We believe in working smarter, not harder.
3. Mental Health: At Diamond Foundry, we know you want to produce work you are proud of. In order to perform your best, you have to feel your best. Mental health is important to your overall health which is why Diamond Foundry offers programs to support you and your dependents. Globally, we provide access to mindfulness and meditation as well as free counseling and coaching sessions through our Employee Assistance Program.
4. Health Benefits: Medical benefits work differently based on the country you live in. So you may have medical coverage offered through Diamond Foundry only, a supplemental plan through Diamond Foundry that compliments your local insurance scheme, or you may have a monthly allowance to purchase benefits on your own. No matter what the case is, we make sure that you’re covered.
Commuting
Living our culture of freedom and responsibility, we treat you like an adult and trust you. Everyone has the ability to make an impact, a seat at the table, and is expected to contribute, create, and share. See below on our philosophies around allowing you to do your best work possible and not being held down by unnecessary process.
1. Expenses and Work-Related Travel: Our policy for travel, entertainment, gifts, and other expenses is 5 words long: “act in Diamond Foundry’s best interest.” We do not have a set travel policy at Diamond Foundry. Using our guiding principles of context, not control - you can use judgement to make decisions that are effective to the business and set you up for success. If in doubt, seek to understand.
2. Support for Commuting: We want to ensure you get to the office safely (if you actually do report into an office). We provide a FSA that helps coverage the cost of public transportation, or public parking. In some cases, we'll even foot the cost for parking if we don't have designated places to leave your vehicle.
